Forcing Me to Be Reborn?!-Chapter 685 - 477 I Think You Need Discipline

Cheng Zhu announced his plan to develop a short-video platform, which was essentially signaling to the capital market.

As far as he knew, there were quite a few capitals planning to enter the short-video market in the past two years.

Now, although live streaming platforms were the most favored, it didn’t mean nobody was paying attention to short videos.

With his current high popularity, he naturally wouldn’t miss the chance to hype up his own short-video platform.

After all, this game was all about traffic, so he definitely took the opportunity to divert some.

Clearly, the hype was working well.

These unique internet celebrities, even if thrown into the live streaming industry, were capable fighters.

Moreover, many of them didn’t reveal their faces in their fan groups, or only showed parts of it.

Thus, they could also have multiple personas.

Cheng Zhu even felt like he was giving them a chance to "reform"...

"These people who understand boundary pushing, the effect is usually not bad."

"And they understand men too well, too much like old lechers."

"When it comes to fan management, these people are experts!"

"Once we roll out the ’PK’ mechanism, these folks might just easily cultivate their own top champions."

Cheng Zhu hadn’t expected that these would be the people who had stuck with his ventures the longest...

From the early days of Persistent Visit to short video.

They had almost become his most loyal supporters.

Looking at Cheng Zhu’s current ’personal composition’, it was actually quite complex.

Founder of desire style + follower of internet yellow + underground emperor of QQ.

Briefly: Emperor of Desire.

...

...

Internet celebrity and university beauty Zhang Qiqi just missed the chance to "show her loyalty."

She looked at the swarm of internet yellows in the Persistent Visit comment section and didn’t even dare to leave a message.

"I am a beauty blogger; I’m different from them," she thought.

Getting involved would likely cause trouble.

Thus, she immediately left a comment under the official Weibo of Youu Tea.

However, she found that some internet celebrities from Ancient Mountain Culture were even more efficient than she was, having already commented and even made it to the top comments.

Aside from those, other female internet celebrities who tagged themselves under "desire style" also came to check in.

Zhang Qiqi: "..."

She was again a step behind!

What she didn’t know was that Cheng Zhu, who hadn’t replied to her WeChat messages, returned to Technology University after the May Day holiday.

When the online controversy just started, he hadn’t returned to school but directly asked for a leave.

During the May Day holiday, it was even less likely for him to visit the school.

But, what’s the saying?

"To be wealthy and not return home is like walking in brocade at night!"

After making it big, he needed to return to the school, right?

Now, it wasn’t just the classmates who wanted to see him; the school leaders at Technology University also desperately wanted to meet him.

In a fantasy novel, this scenario would be the Sect Master and elders tearfully and excitedly saying: "Our sect has produced a dragon!"

This is the Zhejiang Daily-appointed post-90s entrepreneurship model representative. Think about how valuable that title is.

Moreover, this freshman was too considerate, frequently mentioning his alma mater in interviews and emphasizing the help provided by Technology University multiple times.

But he never elaborated on it.

Why is that?

"It’s because you provided too little!"

"It’s only Dean Zhang that cares a bit more."

"My dear school leaders, do you know what to do now?"

Cheng Zhu returned to school this time to access resources.

Don’t underestimate the help a provincial capital university can provide.

It would be truly formidable!

And when Cheng Zhu walked into the men’s dormitory building with a calm demeanor, the entire dormitory erupted!

As he walked up the stairs, surrounded by onlookers, the hallway was packed with people.

When he was just a milk tea tycoon, it had never been like this.

This was the presence of a QQ tycoon!

"I can’t say I’m admired by thousands, because there aren’t that many people in one building."

"But the way they look at me, it’s really like looking at a god!"

Do you understand the value of being the number one in the QQ realm in the eyes of silly university boys?

And when Cheng Zhu entered the dorm, his three loyal followers instantly stood up to greet him.

Cheng Zhu didn’t want the reunion with his brothers to be disturbed by random people and even closed the dorm door himself.

"Brother Zhu, you kept it too secret from us!" Liu Feng was the first to speak.

"Yeah, no wonder that time at the fried chicken shop, you were checking Persistent Visit’s Weibo," Zheng Qingfeng also rarely spoke such a long sentence in one breath.

Too strong! Becoming the king of QQ in university is just too strong!

Only Dong Dong, who was usually the most energetic, looked at Cheng Zhu with a complex expression.

"What’s wrong, Donger, not saying a word?" Cheng Zhu smiled.

"Brother Zhu, it hurts how you deceived me!" Dong Dong, a small franchisee of Persistent Visit, began to complain.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Zhu’s expression hardened, and then he seriously said: "Donger, let me be honest with you. Your store was actually not allowed to open because it’s too close to another store, and the location didn’t meet the requirements. It was I who made an exception for you."

"But you need to understand, you all know what kind of person I am. I won’t take special care of you just because we’re roommates. I thought the location you picked was indeed quite good, and that you could make it work. You understand, right?"

Hearing this, Dong Dong immediately perked up.

See? Men are so easy to placate.

The psychology of men and children isn’t much different.

"Brother Zhu, I get it! I fucking get it!" Dong Dong suddenly threw a punch.

"What did you get?" Cheng Zhu was speechless.

"You must have seen my business mind!" he began to puff up and said: "These four years in university, from now on I only want to make money! I aim to become the biggest franchisee of Persistent Visit!"

Cheng Zhu decided to put him down a bit and said: "Donger, in the future, words like ’just wanting to make money’, we should keep that within our dorm discussions. Don’t say it outside."

"Brother Zhu, I get it, it’s too pretentious, right?" He nodded profoundly.

But, Cheng Zhu waved his hand and sat cross-legged, saying: "No, it’s because if someone says he just wants to make money, then you can pretty much be sure that not only does he have no money, but he also has no love life."

Dong Dong: Let me go, let me try jumping from the third floor of the dorm to see if I would die!

...

...

At three-thirty in the afternoon, Cheng Zhu walked out of the conference room at Technology University.

Just now, he had a conversation with several school leaders in the conference room.

Apart from Dean Zhang and Director Li, even the president and the honorary president personally came this time.

Normally, Chen Jieyu wouldn’t have the right to attend such an occasion, but Cheng Zhu insisted on calling her and praised her multiple times in front of the school leaders.

"No matter whether Chen Teacher wants to take an administrative path in the school in the future, just praise her and be done with it, I just love to praise!" Cheng Zhu thought to himself.

Towards the end, Chen Jieyu was somewhat embarrassed.

She clearly knew she hadn’t helped Cheng Zhu much in his career, at most facilitating his ability to take leave, and then just doing something for him in his life.

She felt Cheng Zhu was forcibly praising her, just blatantly boosting her presence.

After parting with the school leaders, she whispered to Cheng Zhu: "You were a bit too deliberate."

"What does that matter?" He was completely indifferent.

Right now, he was Technology University’s prime advertisement, the representative of entrepreneurship.

Currently, he was the most famous student of Technology University in Zhejiang Province.

He couldn’t say he would walk sideways in the school in the future, but his status was certainly extraordinary.

Cheng Zhu’s phone rang at this moment, and he saw that the caller was Wang Yunan, founder of Ming Tea.

So, he looked up at the guidance councillor and said, "I’ll go back home for dinner tonight, I’ll take this call in the car first."

Chen Jieyu nodded: "Then I’ll go buy some groceries later."

They each got into their cars.

"Hello, senior."

Cheng Zhu thought Wang Yunan was going to discuss Ming Tea.

They had already signed a contract a while ago; Cheng Zhu invested fifty million in Ming Tea and had become one of its shareholders.

But to his surprise, Wang Yunan was actually setting up a meeting.

And the person who asked him to set it up was none other than Chen Yue of Yue Tea!

"Her message basically is: she hopes you can come and have a meal together, where she can properly express her sincerity towards you, let bygones be bygones, and also ask you to stop targeting her and Yue Tea," Wang Yunan said on the phone.

Hearing this, Cheng Zhu laughed.

"Hahaha." He really laughed out loud.

Express your sincerity?

How exactly do you plan to do that?

And where did this credible woman come from, claiming I’m targeting you?

Please, dealing with you has always been incidental!

It’s actually you hopping around causing problems...

Talking about moral high ground, creating gender opposition, and even using internet trolls against me.

If it wasn’t for her picking the wrong time and hitting a snag, Cheng Zhu would actually be quite bothered.

Cheng Zhu directly said: "Senior, since you’ve actively set this up, I guess she mentioned a relationship that you can’t really refuse, right?"

Wang Yunan coughed a few times, saying: "Yes, it’s my biggest supplier, we’ve cooperated for many years."

"I see."

"Junior doesn’t want to have this meal, I’ll just reject it. After all, my task is merely to act as a messenger," Wang Yunan said.

Cheng Zhu nodded slightly, saying: "Then you can also relay what I’m about to say to her."

"Uh, go ahead, junior," Wang Yunan hadn’t expected himself to really become a go-between.

"I’ve never targeted any milk tea brand deliberately. I’m just focusing on peacefully developing Youu Tea. The reason why others feel affected is because they can’t keep up with the times."

Since Ming Tea was about to transition, saying this to Wang Yunan wasn’t a big deal as Ming Tea was soon to catch up with the Milk Tea 3.0 era.

"All along, everyone has been copying Youu Tea’s products, I don’t mind. To be honest, if Yue Tea really comes up with a trump card product, I would also instruct our R&D department to study it thoroughly, but unfortunately, there isn’t one yet."

"As for those little moves behind the scenes, they are ultimately inelegant, aren’t they?"

"Ever since I opened my store, many peers didn’t like me, and honestly, I also didn’t like them. The things Yue Tea has done, I advise you to stop while you can."

Cheng Zhu paused slightly, then said something that would absolutely make Chen Yue instantly turn into a madwoman upon hearing.

"This industry lacks discipline, and so do you."
